Embed RSS Feeds On Website (lemmy.world)

I'm looking for something that will embed a selection of RSS feeds on a website so that it essentially does the same thing as an RSS reader but displays my follows on a webpage. I know 55sketch has simple-rss on Github but I'm looking for something that will pull from various sources and list the articles in order of newest first. Anybody got any idea where I might find such a thing?

No, but it sounds cool. In what programming language would you like this tool for your website? It doesn't sound too difficult to make, so if you want, I could have a go at making this for you?

It's okay, I sussed it out. Thank you anyway. I wanted it to fit in with the look and feel of the rest of my site and I eventually managed to do it in the section labelled ''Terminal 3" at media-underground.net

It can take about 20 seconds to parse the feeds, but I don't think there's anything I can do to speed it up. My RSS reader takes just as long.

nice, looks cool! Just out of curiosity, what language is the site written in?

HTML. I wanted to go full retro with it, although the parsing of the RSS feeds are done by a little PHP script.
